Baltimore occupy our homes

A map of Poppleton shows in shades of gray the properties acquired — and to be acquired — for redevelopment. The Boss Kelly house was located in the gray block at the uppermost left. The statement did not address demands for a moratorium on the displacement of Sarah Ann residents by the agency. After promising retail space and 1, new homes, the developer has only built two partially-occupied apartment buildings on Schroeder Street, about eight blocks from the Boss Kelly house. King and Eaddy, who has been president of Poppleton Now but whose leadership has been challenged, have struggled to get assistance from those with the power to act.

The board approved sending the letters, but King discovered, to her surprise, that the letters were never sent. And a number of cases, when they entered into those mortgages, they did so not knowing what they were signing up for. Baltimore is kind of ground zero for that. KARA: I went to them. And I went to them because I was watching on the news what is going on in New York, and I decided since there is a group in Baltimore, I would go there and ask them for help.

I did right. They helped me a lot. I feel different way. I was very down, extremely stressed, and they came into my house, they helped me. I feel with courage right now, you know. And they help me to have hope again. As the clock struck noon in Baltimore on a still-crowded corner, the sheriff had not come to evict Lila Kara from her home that the banks say she no longer has a place in. TRNN cannot guarantee their complete accuracy.

After she did for 4 months, she learned she had been foreclosed upon. The banks later sold her house two times, in spite of the fact that she was still in negotiations and continuing payments. She says her foreclosures and eviction are fraudulent and illegal. It was created for me. The Washington Post reported that Stephan said in a deposition that he had signed around 10, foreclosures a month without properly verifying the information, in a practice that was found to be widespread in the banking industry.

Johns Hopkins University professor Lester Stence, who has battled foreclosure and eviction from his home, explains some of the ways in which shady loaning practices have trapped Baltimore residents into foreclosures. So you got people, again, who just have regular mortgages, but who live in houses that are worth less than what they paid for them. And a number of cases, when they entered into those mortgages, they did so not knowing what they were signing up for.

Baltimore is kind of ground zero for that. KARA: I went to them. And I went to them because I was watching on the news what is going on in New York, and I decided since there is a group in Baltimore, I would go there and ask them for help. I did right.
